The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, candidate in the just
concluded presidential election has admitted that his Labour Party counterpart,
Peter Obi took their votes in the South-east, South-south.
Atiku, who spoke while addressing the press in Abuja on
Thursday, asserted that the votes Obi garnered from the two geo-political
regions cannot make him a president of the country.
The former vice president called on Obi to dialogue with PDP
on how to reclaim the victory from the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
He said, “At the time Peter decided to leave PDP and join Labour Party, we had not even began our primary process so the question of whether he was going to get the ticket or not did not arise.
“Yes, agreed and it is a fact that he took our votes from
the south-east, south-south but that of course will not make him a president.
“You all know that to be a president in this country you
need votes from everywhere so as far as I’m concerned, Peter is welcome to
dialogue with PDP. We are ready to dialogue with him”.
